I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and have worked in the field for 20 years. I work with individual adults and adolescents, I have also participated in the LGBT post-graduate certification program.

Accepting Virtual Only Appointments! Hi! My name is Mary Blue. Through the psychodynamic approach and a strong client-therapist relationship, we are able to uncover unconscious thought patterns, childhood repressions, and maladaptive coping strategies. My warm, understanding, and non-judgmental therapeutic environment, gives people the opportunity to discover and grow their strengths and encourage healing.

As a psychotherapist, a certified clinical trauma professional, and a former teacher, helping people to learn & grow have been the core focus of my entire life's work. I am intimately aware that the act of sharing our challenges and life struggles with a compassionate listener is a powerful one that can be transformational. Life will inevitably present us all with challenges and changes, and reaching out for support can be empowering. My treatment method is solution-focused & emotion-focused with a strengths-based approach to help my clients experience positive growth and gain mastery over their circumstances.

I have over twenty five years of clinical experience working with individuals, families, couples and groups. I have been fortunate to work in a variety of clinical milieus including inpatient and outpatient community mental health settings. I have experience working with childhood disorders, anxiety disorders, mood disorders and family/marital issues. I enjoy working with patients from age 12 and up and encourage participation from family members and friends.

I have over 30 years of experience working with individuals, adults, and families that have emotional distress and mental health issues. I have also worked in the foster care system with the Department of Children and Family Services and the court systems. Tengo más de 30 años de experiencia trabajando con personas, adultos y familias que tienen angustia emocional y problemas de salud mental. También he trabajado en el sistema de cuidado de crianza con el Departamento de Servicios para Niños y Familias y los sistemas judiciales.

I work with clients who feel they are out of options, feel lost, burnt out, and feel their symptoms have taken over their lives. With all of my clients, I work to instill the skills not only needed to overcome the issue they are seeking counseling for, but also how to use these skills with future problems. My therapeutic approach is tailored to each individual client and their needs but is always goal oriented. I have a special interest/experience in self-injury, depression, anxiety, pregnancy/postpartum issues, parenting and chronic pain/migraines with adolescents and adults.

Are you stuck, unable to make the lasting changes you’re longing for? Maybe you are struggling to figure out what you should do and how to do it? Perhaps relationships are strained and you feel you go around and around. You may know where you want to be but can't figure out how to get there, and maybe even feel like giving up. Often, the first step is simply being heard, feeling understood and accepted unconditionally. The fact that you are reading this shows you have hope, hope that you can find inner peace and clarity, and then be able to take those steps that feel safe to you.

In my career, I have worked with many populations and have enjoyed helping empower my clients to reach their goals. Being trained to address trauma, I understand how it can impact someone’s life and understand the importance of how the experiences in someone’s life can have a lasting impact. I also try to provide a safe accepting environment that is nonjudgmental. I look forward to getting to know you!

My therapeutic style focuses on safety & empowerment. I may be the clinician, but I honor the fact that you are the expert of your own life. I build trust by wearing my heart on my sleeve. I would never ask you to risk your vulnerability if I am unwilling to risk my own. I may use humor to foster hope & ease discomfort. I welcome you to question my perspectives to improve the power of our co-created insights. We will collaborate to develop ways for you to make new choices, break old patterns, and build more effective supports. Our work will help you unlock your potential for healing, and get you closer to the person you want to be.

Today is the perfect day to put yourself first.
